Romano Fenati Dipilih Untuk Mengemudi Jentera Perlumbaan Moto2 MV Agusta

Pasukan MV Agusta Reparto Corse yang bertanding dalam siri Moto2 telah mengesahkan Romano Fenati sebagai salah seorang penunggang mereka bagi musim 2019.
Fenati telah beraksi cemerlang dalam Moto3 pada tahun 2017 namun kini bergelut dengan kesukaran dalam Moto2.
Menuruti peraturan Moto2 bagi tahun 2019, MV Agusta akan membina jentera mereka berdasarkan enjin Triumph yang baharu.

Romano Fenati Picked to Ride MV Agusta Moto2 Race Bike

MV Agusta Reparto Corse’s Moto2 project has confirmed Romano Fenati as one of their riders for the 2019 season.
Fenati had done well in Moto3 in 2017 but currently struggling in Moto2.
As with the 2019 Moto2 regulations, MV Agusta will build the bike around the new Triumph engine.

We reported earlier that the famed Italian marque, MV Agusta will be joining the Moto2 grid from 2019, but the manufacturer did not announce the rider at the time. MV Agusta had finally announced that Romano Fenati will pilot the bike alongside a stablemate.

MV Agusta returns to MotoGP

Do note that all Moto2 bikes will use the new Triumph 765cc Triple engine next year, despite the bike is branded as MV Agusta. Triumph supplies the engine while builders such as Kalex, Speed Up, KTM and MV Agusta complete the rest of the bike.

The signing of Fenati is seen as something of great interest among fans. He was unceremoniously sacked from Valentino Rossi-backed Sky VR46 team in 2016 after being abusive to members of the team. Since then he had to carry the reputation of being hard to work with.

Marinelli Honda contracted him for the 2017 Moto3 season where he finished 2^nd overall. Fenati made the jump to the Moto2 class for 2018 but he has been experiencing a horrid season and is currently in 19^th position with just 14 points.

While MV Agusta has stated that their Moto2 involvement is for the long-term, signing Fenati on as rider could be a risk to them. But Fenati does have real talent and speed.

“I am very happy and honoured to take part in this prestigious project and to join such a cohesive and competent group as the Forward Racing Team is,” the fiery Italian said. “Driving the F2 will be a source of great pride for me and will be an important responsibility, so I will give all my contribution and my experience to achieve excellent results.”

It was only last month that MV Agusta that they will be returning to the world of MotoGP in 2019 after a 42-year absence. A four-year deal has been signed with the Forward Racing team which will see them compete in a brand new reworked intermediate class that will run Triumph’s 765cc inline-three engine. (more…)
